Thank you to all who attended our September 30 concert and donated funds toward hurricane relief in Puerto Rico. We raised over $1500 in one evening thanks to your help. Your generous gifts more than doubled the contributions from the Cornell community thus far.

During spring break in 2017, the Cornell Orchestras embarked on an exciting week-long tour to Argentina. Our collaboration with the Orquesta Sinfónica del Neuquén and Maestro Andres Tolcachir culminated in a sold-out performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 6. Aside from rehearsal, our members were able to enjoy the sights of Argentina and take in the local culture.

27 American orchestras were recognized with 2013-14 ASCAP Awards for Adventurous Programming at the League of American Orchestras’ National Conference, June 4-6 in Seattle. ASCAP and the League present the awards each year to orchestras of all sizes for programs that challenge the audience, build the repertoire, and increase interest in music of our time.
